Citations in the corpus

• Inter-industry labor flows (2017, background): “Because workers specialize, their human capital is often held to be specific to the rm where they work (Becker, 1964), to an industry (Neal, 1995; Parent, 2000; Sullivan, 2010) and to occupations and tasks erformed (Poletaev and Robinson, 2008; Gathmann and Schönberg, 2010).”
• Career Choice and Wage Growth (2011, methodology): “Parent (2000) and Kambourov and Manovskii (2009) use a variant of the Altonji and Shakotko (1987) IV method to estimate the parameters.”
• Automation, skills use and training (2018, background): “However, some of the skills we use at work are also industry-specific (Neal 1995; Parent 2000), so in addition to occupations, industry employment patterns are also informative.”
• Occupational Specificity of Human Capital (2009, methodology): “Parent (2000), however, argues that industry tenure is unlikely to be correlated with the quality of employer matches.”
• MODELING EARNINGS DYNAMICS (2009, neutral): “See Neal (1995), Parent (2000), and Kambourov and Manovskii (2009) for somewhat con icting evidence on the importance of occupation speci c, industry speci c, and rm speci c human capital.”
• Human Capital Specificity: Evidence from the Dictionary of Occupational Titles and Displaced Worker Surveys, 1984–2000 (2008, methodology): “Using data from both the PSID and the NLSY, Parent (2000) takes a direct approach to identifying sources of specificity, similar to Neal’s equations (1) - (3).”
• The Wage Effects of Offshoring: Evidence from Danish Matched Worker-Firm Data (2014, neutral): “We follow Parent (2000) and measure industry-specific experience”
• Unpacking Prior Experience: How Career History Affects Job Performance (2009, background): “Consistent with previous studies (e.g., Castilla 2005, Goldsmith and Veum 2002, McDaniel et al. 1988, Parent 2000), we focus on prior experience that is related through industry or occupation , as these are two important sources of task-relevant knowledge and skill.”
• Trade Adjustment: Worker Level Evidence (2014, neutral): “13See Neal (1995), Parent (2000), Polataev and Robinson (2008), and Gathmann and Schönberg (2010) on the importance of firm- and industry-specific human capital in worker adjustment to labor market shocks.”
